Overview

Remote : PR Account Executive for early stage tech founders

Help tech startups break through the noise through a combination of Humans + AI.

WHO WE ARE

VSC is a team of storytellers, strategists, and data nerds helping Davids beat Goliaths with unfair levels of attention. We blend PR, content, and creative to turn early-stage startups into vertical market leaders — and we’ve done it 1,000+ times, unlocking $100B+ in exits and four IPOs.

Our brand work over the years : Windsurf, Groq, Prenuvo, Sequoia Capital India, Mayfield, Tile, Mammoth Biosciences, Outdoorsy, Molekule, Poshmark, PebbleEV, and Fizz, to name a few.

WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY DO

W.O.B. - wins on the board. Every founder needs them, and we deliver them sustainably. We stay retained by putting wins on the board. Can you put wins on the board consistently?

You’ll lead execution across 5-6 accounts, work directly with founders and content creators, generate publicity, and develop ideas that challenge industries — and win awards. Build founder relationships and help shape their public voice :

  • Help turn brilliant, technical founders into unforgettable public voices
  • Build real relationships with the people who move culture — not just reporters, but podcasters, TikTokers, YouTubers, and Substack stars
  • Be a creator, not just a strategist — ship short-form content that earns attention without needing a newsroom
  • Support and level up a tight, fast-moving team that wants to win as much as you do

WHO YOU ARE

You have high agency, nonlinear thinking, and an instinct for distribution. You spend your time reverse-engineering virality and helping technical founders find their voice online — not just pitching the press. You’re the type of person who reads a founder’s draft tweet and knows exactly how to rework it into something that will get shared 10,000 times. You’re obsessed with finding the next wild, sticky idea — the one that hijacks attention and shapes the culture.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • 2-3 years working in PR on the agency side or inhouse at a start-up with some wins on the board (coverage, product launches, ideas that stuck)
  • Media relationships with business and tech journalists
  • Mastery of AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Perpelexity to create and evaluate excellence in all you do
  • Experience working with content creators or helping clients build a voice online — not just media pitching
  • Confidence in talking to genius-level founders, pushing back on weak ideas, and delivering stronger ones
  • Obsessed with tech culture, headlines, and how ideas travel
  • Have your own social presence because how can one advise a client if they don’t know how to do it for themselves?

    • WHY THIS JOB IS DIFFERENT

  • You’ll work directly with founders building real companies — not just brand teams on endless Zooms of BS
  • We have a venture fund of $21m and have backed 20+ startups. We understand the challenges founders go through beyond just marketing.
  • We’re remote-first, fast-moving, and idea-driven. Our joy comes from being part of a technical renaissance and taking garage startup concepts to the mainstream.

    • Want to be at the forefront of tech, storytelling, and culture while working in your PJs? VSC is where it happens.

    We are forging the future of human-driven storytelling. Humans + AI.
